Here's a link to the story about Freeman's accident from the Commercial Appeal newspaper in Memphis: http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2008/...miss-car-wreck/ Here's hoping Morgan makes a speedy recovery. He's a great ambassador for our state.

Here's another bad one ... In an American Indoor Football Association playoff game Saturday night in Tupelo, Miss., the Columbus Lions led the Mississippi Mudcats 40-18 at halftime. When it was over, Mississippi won 52-50. http://www.djournal.com/pages/story.asp?ID...ub=1&div=Sports

1) The Spirit of Radio 2) 1980 3) 16 4) At home, listening to the radio (WLS-AM, Chicago) EDIT: Good morning, Sky. You mentioning Tom Sawyer reminds me of when I first heard TS, also on WLS. It came on one morning (like 3 or 4 a.m.) in early '81. The song had a spooky feeling to it at that time of morning, yet because of the great clear-channel signal WLS put out, even all the way to Mississippi, the song sound so cool. I recall hearing TS one more time that day, and then I decided to buy Moving Pictures.

Any alteration of a vehicle license plate - even a simple one like placing a question mark on the existing letters - gives a policeman enough cause to stop someone and ticket the person for the violation, according to a nephew who works as a policeman. As for the policeman's attitude, it seems he was way out of line. However, I can understand why he became agitated. Policemen, including my nephew (a cop in a college town) and two uncles who were veteran cops in one of the most crime-ridden cities in America (Memphis), have to be on the edge when they're at work. Imagine a job where the person you're stopping for a simple violation might have a loaded gun in his hand. One uncle had a partner gunned down in the line of duty. If you constantly question them about an obvious violation, they can become confrontational. But going back to the original post ... Have your day in court and explain the trivial reason why you put the question mark on the tag. There's a chance you can get off with a lesser fine. Speaking of car tags, mine expired May 31. Guess I better renew it or else wind up in a whole heap of trouble with the law.

The spirit of radio was alive on WKRP in Cincinnati during the late '70s ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-qNxTTGAuc

And let's not forget the great late night shows ... The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson Tomorrow The Midnight Special Saturday Night Live (with the original Not Ready for Primetime Players & Bill Murray)

I'll be the oddball in this thread and cast a write-in vote for Hope.

It's by "Alice Bowie" - a Cheech Marin character from Cheech & Chong's nightclub routine. A clip of "Alice Bowie" - EDIT: Just heard Big Money on ASOH (via my mp3 player with every Rush album on it). That is Earache at the end.

I'm at work.

Is it a tour management or ticket organization?

I feel inspired to clean the house this morning.

I didn't start watching The Sopranos until the "Mr. and Mrs. John Sacramoni Request" episode. After I saw it, I thought, what the hell have I been missing. This is great stuff. I bought the DVD sets of every season and have been watching episodes every chance I get. I'm now up to the second part of Season 6. Of course, I watched every episode down the final stretch, but it's going to be fun watching it again - especially when Phil gets his head crushed. "Oh, Shit!"

I get eight hours of sleep every night.

Test For Echo Presto

EDIT: Gotta add Olivia Newton-John to the list. Yeah, I definitely had a Kristy McNichol crush back then. Let's see, was she on a show called "Family"? Do you remember a movie called Little Darlings? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_darlings Yeah, I do. Was Tatum O'Neal in that as well? And Matt Dillon. Yes, Kristi was on 'Family'. http://dvdtoile.com/ARTISTES/4/4703.jpg

Who's the cat that won't cop out When there's danger all about? CHEF! Can you dig it? My son, who was like 12 or 13 at the time, and I went to an NBA game between the Grizzlies and the Wizards. Isaac Hayes, decked out in a red, white and blue American flag warm-up suit, delivered a fantastic a cappella rendition of the national anthem. After the song ended, my son said, 'Dad, he sounds like Chef on South Park.' I informed him that was the guy who did the voice of Chef. I think my son enjoyed that more than seeing Jordan play. It was also a treat for me, since one of the first 45 singles I ever bought - at age 8 - was the Theme From Shaft.
